Families looking for Senior Housing in Denver usually do not start their search in hopes to find the assisted living facility with:
- The most citations or violations
- The worst care history or
- The highest staff turnover
But that is exactly what can happen when you request a list of assisted living facilities from other assisted living websites.
After all, with those other assisted living websites, you are dealing with a computer program, not a professionally certified senior care consultant.
We know that you expect and deserve more. That’s why CarePatrol of Denver looks beyond the chandeliers and fancy lobbies and focuses on each community’s care history.

Senior Housing In Denver
Senior Housing in Denver are residential facilities that make available to three or more adults who are unrelated to the owner, either directly or indirectly through an agreement between the provider and the resident, room and board and at least the following services: personal services; protective oversight; social care due to impaired capacity to live independently; and regular supervision that must be available on a 24-hour basis, but not to the extent that regular 24-hour medical nursing care is required.
The facility must make available, either directly or indirectly, through a resident agreement the following services sufficient to meet the needs of the residents: a physically safe and sanitary environment; room and board; personal services; protective oversight; and social care.
A facility shall not admit or keep any resident requiring a level of care or type of service that the facility does not provide or is
unable to provide (and in no event shall a facility admit or keep a resident who is consistently uncontrollably incontinent unless the resident or staff is capable of preventing such incontinence from becoming a health hazard); is totally bedridden with limited potential for improvement; needs medical or nursing services on a 24-hour basis; needs restraints; has a communicable disease or infection unless the resident is receiving a medical or drug treatment for the condition and the admission is approved by a physician; or has a substance abuse problem unless it is no longer acute and a physician determines it is manageable. A facility may keep a resident that becomes bedridden while residing in it if there is documented evidence of the following: an order from a physician describing the services required to meet the resident's health needs (including the frequency of assessment and monitoring by the physician or other licensed medical professionals); ongoing assessment and monitoring by a licensed or certified home health agency or hospice (at least weekly assessment); and adequate staffing by individuals trained in the provision of care to bedridden residents.
All personal medication is the property of the resident and no resident shall be required to surrender the right to possess or self-administer any personal medication, except as otherwise specified in the care plan of a resident of a facility that is
licensed to provide services specifically for the mentally ill, or if a physician or other authorized medical practitioner has determined that the resident lacks the decisional capacity to possess or administer such medication safely. For residents who are unable to self-administer medications, medications must be given by a qualified medication administration staff member who has completed a state-approved training and competency examination. A qualified medication aide is permitted to administer oral, inhalant, topical, vaginal, and rectal medications, but not injections. If donated by a resident or resident’s legal representative, a facility may return unused prescription medications that are not controlled substances to a pharmacist in accordance with state laws.
